I'll only speak to the numbers.....I was at Burke's training center this winter and I would say he started with about 90 or so. He also had a small group, maybe about 10 to 12, at Sunshine Meadows.

A little over a million in earnings. That seems low for Takter.

Takter stable hasn’t been the same since Jimmy step away.  I’m not saying Nancy hasn’t had success but she isn’t her dad

Nancy Takter had about $3.5m in earnings last year and wasn't in the top 10 for earnings. All things considered, for her, that's a very bad year. This year she's barely over $1m and not even in the top 25 as far as earnings.

Burke has a two year Gimpanzee he thinks is his best trotter since Mission Brief. Carbon Fiber won the KYSS final at Oak Grove in track record time.

Maybe Ohio told Ron to slowdown. In the old days you would be called. You either listened or got shown the door.

 Ya rite! Not during stake season, maybe a couple of weeks in the winter
Best time of year watch the young horses racing for great money. Nothing better than following the horses, going to wherever their next stake is, with family.

I doubt that but his 2 yo Ohio trotters have not shown much.  Can't think of a worse year he has had in Ohio period with 2 year olds.  But either he will buy something or something will pop up to be good I would think as always.
